Are her fans really down for another era of skipping every major award show, no performances, and questionable videos? It's like they're pulling the wool over everyone's eyes. If she's back, then prove it.

Oh, the epic Piece Of Me peaked at #18, not #19.

It's still sad that this peaked so low, especially on pop radio! It's really surprising because I think most people considering this to be one of Britney's signature songs

She doesn't have to prove anything. She just had the first song to debut at #1 in years AND with absolutely no promotion and she had the top grossing female tour of the year. She makes great music and sure it would be great if she performed and all of that, but I'm just happy she's making awesome music that I love to listen to

If David Guetta really is the mastermind behind single number one, I better see some

choreography in the music video.

trademark smit

Yeah Britney and David would be a HOT collab!

R!ck

I wish Radio would play Britney a lot more!

with her amazing sales she could pull a 2009 BEP!

Oh well!

I'm ready 4 new single!

Well it was a big hit across the globe, despite its low peak in the US.

Oh these Britney stans. She's big, she's successful, but she is in no way comparable to Janet Jackson, thank you.

And you know it's going to happen.

Ah, I see the Christina Fans are getting cocky. Hmmm, 2010, the year that they will be humbled.

I need to receipts cause my fave has been outselling Britney since 2002.

The only thing Britney has over Christina is digital sales. They both are successful tour artists, so she's not owning my fave in any kind of way, so bewp.

Ah, but here's the thing, your faves last album sold 3.7 M copies and it was released in 2006 and had more promo. Circus sold 3.3M copies and was released in 2008 with minimal promo. Also, in the USA both album sold 1.6M copies, the difference is that one album was released in 2006 and was heavily promoted and the other in late 08 with only a promotion on ONE tv show.

Now, let's do a rough estimation, the album sales decline between 2006-2008 should be around 25%.

Here's some maths for you:

Had Back to Basics been released at the same time as Circus, what would it have sold?
You want answeres? Well, here's a very interesting post I found over on Livedaily:

Quote:

Alright, so I did some maths of my own by following you guys equation. I worked out how much B2B would have sold had it been released around the time of Circus.

I worked out 25% of 3.7 million and I got 0.925, and I subtracted it from 3.7 million. You wanna know what I got? 2.775. So B2B would have sold 2.775 million had it been released at the same time as Circus.

So, lets get this straight:

Circus: 3.3 million copies
B2B: 2.7 million copies had it been released around the same time as Circus.

So, Britney would have outsold Christina by 600k. When you consider how much promo Christina did and compare it to the little promo Britney did, I would say that was pretty impressive of Britney.

Now, you guys are going to see this with your own two eyes when bothe their next albums are released at the same time.

Just like Circus dragged B2B, Christina will be dragged by her 1 inch bangs by Britney in 2010. Mark my words.

Also:

Circus: 1st week sales 505k
Total sales US: 1.6 million
Total sales WW: 3.3 million
Released in: Dec. 2008
Singles performance of 1st 3 singles:
Womanizer: #1 (2.7 million sold in US)
Circus: #3 (2.3 million sold in US)
IUSA: #20 (980k sold in US)
Tour #'s: estimated to gross $100 million +

Back to Basics: 1st week sales 340k
Total sales in US: 1.6 million
Total sales WW: 3.7 million
Released in: Aug. 2006
Singles performance:
ANOM #6 (1.3 million copies sold in the US)
Hurt #19 (500k sold in the US )
Candyman #25 (600k sold in the US)
Tour #'s: according to Billboard magazine, $48 million

Stay threatened and mad Christina fans. Britney achieved more with her last record than Christina, and she wasn't even trying. So bewp.

Back to Basics sold 4.2 million, so your post is null and void.

You also fail to mention that Britney toured much more extensively than Christina, yet Christina had the Female Tour of 2007.

I wasn't trying to turn this into a Legend vs. Sh1tney war, but if you want to go there then gurl I'm ready.

NOPE. Back to Basics sold 3.7 M copies. Evidence:

'Keeps Getting' Better – A Decade of Hits' is Christina’s first album since the release of her 2006 ‘Back to Basics’ album, which reached number one in both the UK and US, going platinum in the UK and selling over 3.7 million copies worldwide.

Britney had the #1 grossing tour for a SOLO artist. Also, Britney's 61 US shows in the US (Which grossed $82.5M) grossed more than Christina's entire world tour which had 82 dates and FOUR legs. So nice try with the whole 'Britney's tour was more extensive'.

Don't come here trying to be innocent because you were looking for a reaction, and boy your in for one hell of a reaction because you DID make this into a Britney vs Floptina war.

Oops. Scared you off? Well, whenever you're ready just let me know. I've just finished compiling some very interesting data, so I am MORE than ready for it.
